Nazgul:
Must you include his name on the topic? Doesn't the article already contains his full names?

Seun this your website sucks. So much tribalism even from your so called mods.

Edited...
Note: I'm in no way supporting the criminal. He's a criminal and must face the wrath of the law. I'm only pointing out what Seun's mods do whenever the culprit is of Igbo extraction.

Well, you have a point. No need to include his name but then given how tribalised the nairaland society has become, they do this because they know it will attract more clicks.

1stGenAmerican:
So do I. When I saw that the person in London who supposedly sent the invitation addressed it to the Consoler general, I chuckled—and I know that the officer did too. Reading further to make a decision was unnecessary. 😂

Didn't even pick up on that.

Peppysco:
Were you the British case officer that denied him? Asking because that your grammar explaining the reason for the rejection too strong.

Abeg People like these, assuming he is really as fake as I believe, are the people giving us a bad name abroad. This guy's story is clearly filled with too many questionable positions. Which Nigerian company is going to spend all that money on a 5-day training for a low-ranking staff whose salary is less than 400k?

To attend such short training you ought to already be a high-level expert at something very technical. Definitely not a 350k salary earner.
And what training is this that can't be done online anyway?

1stGenAmerican:
So do I. I don’t understand why the company didn’t complete this on the employee’s behalf or gave him supporting documents to submit with his application. If they’re willing to spend 7 times his monthly salary for him to get 5 days of training, they should’ve submitted the visa request for him.

I strongly doubt on the balance of probabilities (beyond a shadow of a doubt really) that this fellow was being genuine.

TripleLTD:
You didn't provide enough proof to believe that you are genuinely going to return.
He was dis-satisfied with your tied to home country proof

So ensure next time to proof beyond reasonable doubt that you are actually returning after your business trip or it won't be possible to attend any events

Why bother? Everything you stated is indeed clearly mentioned in that letter. If he can't process this then even I as the officer would not hesitate to bounce his bottom away from the embassy.

MadamExcellency:
Was it not Lagos State that gave Peter Obi more than a million votes? Where are they dividing into? Nasarawa, Edo, Benue, Abuja nko?

You're still deluded on what Obidients mean.

The totality of lagos voters was less than 1.2 million ma. Sofry sofry

dfrost:
Smarty, this thing go cause serious kasala ooh... E no make sense. Army is trained to shoot and kill. I'm really worried.

I don't see it that way at all. after all this operation is an annual thing and we have not heard of such killings yet. Equally, during the elections we all saw how people had to majorly rely on the army for safety. They are for the people.

dfrost:
I'm confused What again is the work of the military? Police? I don't get this at all.

But you can see that he said they will be assisting or supplementing not taking over the role of civil authorities. Is that now a bad thing?

It is obvious the police are not quite up to the task given the sheer magnitude of the challenges he is talking about. Imagine tackling cultism when as it is now it appears that every other young man in the south of Nigeria is a cultism of some sort. How can the police alone deal with these challenges? How many police officers do we even have?

Btw this is a constitutionally mandated role pursuant to the Armed Forces Act.

id911:
But why can't these busybodies Western leaders call Isreali and Palestinian leaders to a roundtable talks and make a binding resolutions that'll make lasting peace possible thereby stop the intermittent fight and bloodshed once and for all? I just don't understand it at all.

How can you understand when you won't study history? Do you know how many roundtable talks they've had and continue to have even at the UN over this issue?

Read up on the background before you comment.

Good evening house.

I am in a dilemma and I need advice on what to do.

A bit of background about myself: I am a 29 years only child from a very poor background. I work for an IT firm which i joined in 2019 as a graduate trainee.

My total income is around 490k (400k from main job, 90k from a writing side gig).

My challenge:
Recently, My host have told me to look for my accommodation and I have been searching for houses. Unfortunately, the places closer to my places of work is expensive.

I work in VI and the cheapest mini flat I have seen in close vicinity is 1.2M at Ajah.

I also have have a building project I am undertaking in the village that is at roofing stage and my parents have been pressuring me to settle down as the only child.

My dilemma is this, If i go for the house at Ajah, it will eat a bulk of my savings, thereby making it impossible for me to complete the building project or even start the process of settling down.

If I go for a cheaper but farer location, I will be spending more time in traffic.

Please, how do I manage this?

Did you really type farer? Is that a typo?

Well in any case it's obvious you should go for the cheaper but farther location.

Then try to increase your income - for a tech person who can write there are so many much better opportunities out there than a 90k side gig.

haybhi1:
I hope he learns his lessons in jail. I'm happy he's facing this.
I'm surprised how a group of people can believe that a person's private part is stolen. It's like saying a head is stolen.

Yes... coz they definitely have no brains

It says nothing bevause Obi knows there is nothing to say.

Tinubu is just there ignoring all of them - with the international media now showing that most of the noise from within Nigeria is really just bala blu indeed, he won't continue to play that game with yall.

Time to play mature politics! No more gazette fueled trash.

We love to ask funny questions. You Wisdom, what do you produce? Or it's someone else job?

CoronaVirusPro:


Tell me another story!

Dey there.

CoronaVirusPro:
Long live Putin!


Can he help with a nuclear bomb on Israel.

Waiting for US to interfere in conflict.

The joke is that you don't know that Russia is also a friend of Israel.

Have you ever seen Russia condemn Israel? Dey there.

ManirBK:
Putin is absolutely right. Not only America, but the entire West never
regarded the core interest of Palestinians.

In the 90s the US brokered a peace deal and 2 state solution that would have ended the crisis. Why did Yassr Arafat refuse?

NOwazobia:
Don't take him serious, he is a Muslim.


He always disguise to throw jab at christians.


If you doubt, check his history.

Just checked. You seem to be right.

GOTVee:
Even though I'm a born again Christian, we Christians condemn the brutality of Isreal against Gaza. No sane Christian should support the bombing of children and innocent women. We nigerian Christians stand with and will continue to pray for the Palestinians.

Have you prayed for the beseiged middle belt today? Have you championed their cause anywhere?

How can he simultaneously say it doesnt matter when it comes up but that it is so fundamental? Doesnt that make even he negligent for neglecting to ask the questions before hand?

All these politicians should avoid misleading the youth. It is so unfair.

How does any of this move Nigeria forward? Talking about misinformed foreigners asking embarassing questions, is it not we ourselves who are responsible by gleefully spreading any and every rumour because one section of the country thinks they are doing another section??

When will we tell ourselves the truth??

Caleycash:
You're simply living in delusions, which makes you a proper fool!.. How can things get better when you only believe without action??, where has belief done anything without work??, common get away you here, stupid idiots everywhere!

So you read my post and didnt see that i emphasized so much on the taking of action? Are you drunk at this time of the day??



I'm not your problem so i suggest you find some other place to go and be a nuisance. In the first place what is your highest level of education anyway? Do you have the tools to hold such conversations?

I have taken more action to develop Nigeria than you can imagine. You sit in your little shop - which is assuming you actually have something meanginful to do, with an empty head to be ranting on nairaland.

pansophist:
Trying to be humorous but ended up being idiotic.

Agreed.

Caleycash:
There's nothing pessimistic in saying things as they are... na this una rubbish optimism keep Nigeria like dis, suffering and smiling mentality, alot of you Nigerians are stupidly pathetic!

There's no connection between your silly rant and what i'm saying. Being optimistic does not mean not doing the necessary work to grow. It means believing that things can get better and therefore there is value in putting in the work and sacrifices needed. It takes an optimist to fight for better things.

On the other hand a pessimist like the fellow i quoted, who believes nothing good can come out of Nigeria will not do anything to make things better.

Do you understand or you are too silly to get it?

ChybuzzDD:
You think wishful thinking changes anything??

Neither does the overly pessimstic view really mean anything. So why not allow both the pessimist and the optimist their freedom of belief?

Jashub:
As for me , na online hustles o...most especially in the IT or Forex trading sectors.

As for Nigeria, the country is doomed to destruction ...and if anyone is thinks things will get better is just being outright stupid

You are not unemployed sir.

EmirofAfonjaz:
ITS LOVELY that even with all your propaganda against IGBO land. Commercial activities are still on going.
IGBO passengers patronizing businesses.
I know you wanted to stereotype the event...but you failed.

Now..when are you capturing news about IBADAN Airport?

Below is IBADAN AIRPORT....

Why are GOATs and RAMs the passengers?..Even with all your IGR propaganda?

Article writer: Prince Okafor
Name of passenger: not mentioned
Place of incident: Lagos

So who is the problem here...the writer or you??

LikeAking:
For you to believe no one came to report about their missing relatives broke my heart..

A youth for that matter..

Even if you call for Nigerians to report about their missing relatives they will troop out to report..

People go missing a lot in Nigeria, talk less of during the ends sars days.

You also claimed lots of none end sars protesters died also..You think the relatives of none end sars protesters that died will not complain about their missing relatives via the channels created by governor Sanwo Olu..

Continue supporting policticians..

Most of you now love policticians more than you love your children and relatives..


E go go round las, las.

This is the lack of logic we are talking about. So in your mind there is this distinction between relatives of those you believe died at Lekki and those the government says died around the state, such that the relatives of the former would refuse to claim their bodies even three years after, while those of the victims from other places would rush to claim theirs?

What is the basis of this dichotomy??

LikeAking:
My point is majority of us are too emotional, so we can’t think and also speak the truth about bad governance in the country..

We will all pay the price..

And you don't know you are describing yourself here? Overly emotional with no ability to dissect issues logically. Once you don't like Sanwo Olu you will attack anything he says or does without looking at the facts.
Hopefully you will grow out of it.

wonder233:
When I typed yours on Google, it asked me if I meant "scot-free".
I know you're trying to do the whole clapback thing, but, unfortunately, e no work dis time around

Clap back for what?? I was mistaken and you are correct. Simple.

.

As i said before, the young men chose their path. The dearth of innate morality in today's youth is scary.
